Celebrity Head Lyrics

At quarter to nine
My plus one decides to make her arrival
I’ll say what I like
At the end of the night for social survival
I’ll cut you to size
Then apologise and make an impassioned plea
There were no docken parks
I had to walk in the dark I wasn’t myself you see

Here I am again you know me
Here I am again in for free
Missed the backing band you know me
Here I am again in for free

I know I sound trite
But I get off on things like It’s their sophomore album
I don’t know what I mean
But I’m a part of the scene I know a guy from The Melvins
I came to do a review
I had to wait in the queue I just can’t believe it
Don’t you know who I am
I work the street paper scam I can’t believe you don’t read me

Here I am again you know me
Here I am again in for free
Missed the backing band you know me
Here I am again in for free
Here I am again
Here I am again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

hahaha great, great lyrics. obviously havin a nice ol' go at review writers. bernard (i think he wrote this one) is really clever in his criticism - he condemns reviewer cliches - "I know I sound trite, But I get off on things like It’s their sophomore album" and demeans them in general "I don’t know what I mean But I’m a part of the scene I know a guy from The Melvins"
